This Sunday at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea will face off against Arsenal in a crucial London derby in the Premier League.
The Gunners have struggled recently, securing just two victories in their last six matches across all competitions. They experienced back-to-back 1-0 defeats against Newcastle United and Inter Milan over the past week.
Meanwhile, Chelsea delivered an impressive 8-0 victory against FC Noah from Armenia in the UEFA Conference League, but their recent league form has been inconsistent, with only one win in their previous four Premier League games. The match against Noah also marked their first clean sheet since a dominant Carabao Cup win against Barrow on September 24.
This match is pivotal for assessing Chelsea’s ambitions for a top-four finish this season, as well as Arsenal’s pursuit of the title.
The Sporting News will provide live updates and commentary for the Chelsea versus Arsenal match.

Chelsea vs. Arsenal Team News and Lineups
Chelsea’s squad is in good physical condition with one notable exception. Star midfielder Cole Palmer is recovering from a studs-up tackle by Lisandro Martinez that was reviewed by VAR for a possible red card. His availability is uncertain as he attempts to regain full fitness.
Another potential absentee is Jadon Sancho, who missed Thursday’s match due to a knock.
Chelsea Starting XI (4-2-3-1): Sanchez (GK) — James, Fofana, Colwill, Gusto — Caicedo, Lavia — Madueke, Fernandez, Neto — Jackson
Chelsea Subs: The matchday squad will be announced one hour before kickoff.
Arsenal is facing injury challenges with a number of players potentially unavailable for this match. Manager Mikel Arteta is uncertain about his lineup. While Martin Odegaard made a brief appearance in midweek Champions League action and may be ready for a larger role, injuries to Declan Rice, Kai Havertz, and Mikel Merino leave Arsenal’s squad uncertain. Rice’s injury is particularly concerning as he deals with a broken toe, requiring ongoing pain management, while the others have head injuries that need further assessment.
Riccardo Calafiori remains sidelined with a knee injury and is unlikely to return before the international break. Takehiro Tomiyasu is expected to be unavailable until December.
